Silk fibroin was used as a stabilizer for gold nanoparticles, and a direct silk fibroin-gold nanoparticle composite system was prepared by a direct compounding method in this paper. The stability of Au NPs/SF in phosphate buffer solution with different pH and KCl concentration was studied. The Au NPs/SF system was characterized by UV-visible light spectrum, transmission electron microscope and infrared spectrum. The silk fibroin-gold nanoparticle composite system was prepared by in situ reduction of chloroauric acid with silk fibroin, according to the change of solution color and the change of ultraviolet absorption peak. The effects of exogenous factors on the stability of the silk fibroin-gold nanoparticle in situ composite system were initially discussed, and its inhibition in breast cancer-bearing animal models was studied. In vivo experiments show that in situ injection of Au NPs/SF nanofibers and treatment with light can effectively control tumor growth. Compared with monodisperse gold nanoparticles, silk fibroin-gold nanoparticles can kill tumor cells and inhibit tumor tissue growth more effectively.

The copper II complex (HLCuCl) carrying 2,4 dinitrophenylhydrazone (L) is synthesized and evaluated as a new photoredox catalyst/photoinitiator in combination with triethylamine (TEA) and iodonium salt (Iod) for the radical polymerization of ethylene glycol diacrylate during exposure to visible light using a photoreactor at 419 nm. The copper complex reactivity with TEA/Iod salt/gold chloride showed a good production and stability of gold nanoparticles. Finally, the high performance of Cu (II) complex for radical photopolymerization incorporating gold nanoparticles is provided. The photochemical mechanisms for the production of initiating radicals are studied using cyclic voltammetry. Polymer nanocomposites containing gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in situ photogenerated during the irradiation process were prepared. The formation of Au NPs inside the polymer matrix was through UV–Vis and EDS/SEM analyses.

Estrones have been subjected to an addition reaction with [(4-ethynylphenyl)azo]pyrrolidine to provide 17 α-{4-[(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-azo]phenylethynyl}estra-3,17 β -diols. A subsequent iodination with iodotrimethylsilane, produced in situ from chlorotrimethylsilane and NaI, leads to 17α-(piodophenylethynyl) estra-3,17 β -diols. This reaction can also be carried out with Na125 I to give radiolabelled estra-3,17 β -diols, which are potentially useful radiodiagnostic agents for the detection of estrogen positive breast cancer. The stability of the radiolabelled compounds is exemplified in a stability study of 3-O-methyl 17 α-(p-[125 I]iodophenylethynyl)estra-1,3,5(10),6-tetraene-17 β -ol in acetonitrile.
